The story is told in the honest and concise Western Henan dialect about four generations of the Liu family in a small town at the foot of the Xiao Qinling Mountains and at the corner of the Yellow River. The two lines run parallel and originate from the cousins Liu Jindou and Liu Jinling who became rich from gold mines. In order to continue the Liu family's popularity, Liu Jindou got married and divorced many times. In the end, he only had two daughters. In desperation, he hired a son-in-law for his eldest daughter - Zheng Gui from Zhengzhou. The couple loved each other and gave birth to a grandson for the Liu family. The good times did not last long. Zheng Gui's mother forced Zheng Gui to move his household registration back to Zhengzhou in order to get more apartments in the urbanization transformation of Zhengzhou suburbs, which triggered a series of ridiculous chain reactions; the second line was Liu Jinling's eldest daughter Liu Da Niu. She talked about a Dong'an egg - a specific name given to people from eastern Henan by Jinzhen people, which aroused strong opposition from everyone in the Liu family. Liu Da Niu, who was in a dilemma, embarked on the road of search. During the search, she brought out the deep spiritual attachment and current adjustment of Chinese farmers in the changes, allowing readers to truly follow the pulse of the times and see the changes in the lives of farmers in northwest China. The rough language is full of recognition of the fathers and fellow villagers, and the sad and happy stories hide the deep love for the Yellow River.
